    RIP the two members of The Easybeats
    George Young (November 6, 1946 - October 22, 2017), aged 70
    Stevie Wright (December 20, 1947 - December 27, 2015), aged 68
    You both will be remembered as legends.

    My friend George Crotty, a singer and record collector, was a personal friend of the Easy Beats and one of their greatest fans. One of the last things he said was how much he revered them and he showed me his folder that he said he was compiling for a book about them. Although he collected many records, I think they were always his favourites.

    A pivotal moment in Rock music history, this record introduced Australian Rock to the rest of the world. Band member George Young also wrote another worldwide hit from Down Under, "Love Is In The Air" by John Paul Young, and unleashed the fury called AC/DC. Good on you, mates.

    Monday mornin' feels so bad
    Ev'rybody seems to nag me
    Comin' Tuesday I feel better
    Even my old man looks good
    Wed'sday just don't go
    Thursday goes too slow
    I've got Friday on my mind
    Gonna have fun in the city
    Be with my girl, she's so pretty
    She looks fine tonight
    She is out of sight to me
    Tonight I'll spend my bread, tonight
    I'll lose my head, tonight
    I've got to get tonight
    Monday I'll have Friday on my mind
    Do the five day grind once more
    I know of nothin' else that bugs me
    More than workin' for the rich man
    Hey! I'll change that scene one day
    Today I might be mad, tomorrow I'll be glad
    'Cause I'll have Friday on my mind
    Gonna have fun in the city
    Be with my girl, she's so pretty
    She looks fine tonight.
    She is out of sight to me
    Tonight I'll spend my bread, tonight
    I'll lose my head, tonight

    There are more Easybeat recordings I like, but in my opinion this was their best one. It has a fantastic drive. It still doesn't sound dated.
    I have mixed feelings about David Bowie's cover (on his album Pinups). The 1970's arrangement is far superior, and of course Bowie has a more charismatic voice than Stevie Wright, but, but, for me it will forever be an Easybeats song.

  • @oleggorky906
